Even better, this recipe make your Pizza snack in hardly any time. So throw out your pizza rolls, and try this instead!
What you need:
Loaf of Italian bread, preferably unsliced
Olive Oil
Italian Seasoning
Tomato sauce
Shredded cheese, (Whichever your favorite is--you're not limited to Mozzarella!)
Your choice of toppings.
Step 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Step 2. Slice bread in 1/2 inch slices.
Step 3. Mix 4 parts olive oil to 1 part seasoning in a ramekin or bowl.
Step 4. Brush the oil and seasoning mixture generously on 1 side of the bread.
Step 5. Place bread slices (oil side up--kind of duh, but just in case you were wondering!) on a baking tray that has been sprayed with a non stick spray.
Step 6. Spoon on thin layer of sauce
And now the fun part! Choose your favorite toppings!
Topping Suggestions: These can range from pre-cooked chicken, to pepperoni, to pineapple, mushrooms, black olives, fresh basil. Just make sure that if the toppings are something that needs cooked, pre-cook them!
Step 7. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
Step 8. Place in oven or toaster oven and bake for 7 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
Enjoy! :)

Easy Stuffed Pepper, By Pimb
Here's an easy one for those who like the stuffing in stuffed peppers but don't like the cooked pepper. I will post 2 variations on the bottom as well.
Pimp says, "This originates from my mom's stuffed bell pepper recipe, but this is much easier (plus I hate cooked bell pepper)."
What you need:
2 Green Bell Peppers
1/2 lb Ground Beef
1 to 1-1/2 cups of Rice (close to 2-1/2 cups when cooked)
Ketchup, to taste (It will be about 1/3 to 1/2 a cup.)
1. Get some hamburger, and brown it in a skillet.
2. Cook some rice. I like to use instant rice. All you do is boil water and put in the rice;let it sit for a few minutes.
3. Mix rice and hamburger together. Add ketchup.
4. Remove the top stem, and seeds from the green peppers. Stuff and Enjoy!
Variations:
A. A Classic Version: Try this with seasoned tomato sauce. Season with a tablespoon of olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and some onions (chopped and grilled with the ground beef). For a nice little extra bit of flavor, add in some grilled mushrooms (I like the Portabellas in this).
Step 2. After you stuff the peppers, place them in an oven-safe dish and bake for 15-20 minutes at 350.
B. Make this Tex-Mex style! It's maybe my favorite way to eat stuffed peppers. Basically, season the beef as you would a taco (use a packet of taco seasoning, or mix your own with: Chili Powder, Garlic Powder, Salt and Pepper, Minced Dried Onions, Cumin, and a tad of Cayenne Powder). Also, if you have it toss in a sliced and seeded Jalapeno. Mmmmm!
Step 2. Then add in some tomato sauce (or you could use some enchilada sauce) with the meat and rice.
Step 3. Stuff the peppers, and top with some cheddar cheese.
Step 4. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.

Roast Tauren Grillz
These tasty sammies are in honor of all our Tauren friends. Really, Tauren are deliciously tasty, just avoid their horns.
What you need:
4 thin slices of Roast Beef
1-2 slices of your favorite cheese (I used Pepperjack, and Chipotle Cheddar.)
Toasted Bread (I used a Garlic Parmesan seasoned Italian Bread.)
**Optional** Try this with a few slices of onion, grilled alongside the beef. You could also add some grilled mushrooms.
Dressing: Try with a Honey Mustard...it's yummy! Or try it dry, with the seasoned bread it will be flavorful, and the grilled beef should be juicy (as long as you don't overcook it).
Step 1. Place your toast in the toaster.
Step 2. Simply grill your roast beef in a skillet on medium heat (takes about a minute or two). When the first side is cooked, flip and add the cheese. Cover for optimal melting. :)

Toasty Cheddar and Salami Sammich!
The great thing about sandwiches, is that if you mix up an ingredient or two you can come up with tasty varieties with the same basic structure. What that means is, don't eat the same old sandwich...play around with your favorite cold cuts.
This particular sandwich was inspired by Carson's Monstrously Delicious Salami and Cheddar Sammie, but also from my love of cream cheese with salami (it also tastes great with pepperoni and bacon). The cream cheese helps to mask the salty taste of these meats. The salts are still there, so do not add any.
In the end, you are left with a really yummy salami sandwich, that has a little bite from the chipotle cheddar, and the tomatoes help even out all these flavors.
What you need:
3-4 slices of Salami (I used Genoa)
2 slices of Chipotle Cheddar
Cream Cheese
Cherry Tomatoes, sliced in half
Toasted Bread (I used a Garlic Parmesan Italian Bread that was in the Fresh Bakery Section of the store.)

Radiatore Pasta Salad
One thing about the summer heat that I hate is eating hot foods when it's 90+ degrees and muggy. This cold pasta salad sure hit the spot, and I had tons of leftovers, which is always win, because you don't need to cook the next day.
Also, you do not need to use radiatore pasta specifically, I chose it to describe this recipe because I think it's a fun little noodle, and the spirals catch the olive oil well. You could use bowties, elbow, or penne noodles instead. The noodles pictured are gemilli.
What you need:
1 Box Radiatore; cooked, drained, and cooled
8-10 pieces of salami cut into little strips (Both hard or genoa salami work well in this recipe.)
2 Roasted Red Peppers (These peppers are optional, but are really delicious in this salad. You can often find jars of Roasted Peppers near the pickles in the grocery store.)
4 Roma Tomatoes, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 to 3/4 cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (to taste)
1 teaspoon of Black Pepper
1 teaspoon of Salt
1 small can of sliced Black Olives
1/4 to 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan Cheese
1-1/2 to 2 tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar
Season to taste with Oregano, Basil, and Garlic Powder (approximately 1 tablespoon of the Oregano and Basil, and 1 teaspoon of Garlic Powder).
**Tip** If you'd like thicker salami pieces, ask the deli counter to cut you 2-3 slices of salami, approximately 1 cm thick. Then slice the salami into small pieces. Yum!
Step 1. Cook the pasta in boiling water for 8-10 minutes. I prefer them slightly al dente for this recipe, but you can make them softer.
Step 2. While your pasta is cooking, chop the onion, tomatoes, and salami. Place these in a large mixing bowl with the drained Black Onions.
Step 3. Drain and cool (with cold water) your pasta.
Step 4. Mix the cold pasta into the mixing bowl, and season with the olive oil, vinegar, and dried seasonings. Stir to coat the pasta the best you can, and to spread the veggies/salami fairly evenly throughout the pasta.
Step 5. Taste-test a noodle or two. Adjust the seasonings to taste, add extra olive oil if needed.
Step 6. Chill the pasta in the fridge for an hour, or make it earlier and chill it overnight.

Alterac Swiss Melt
This is a tasty thick sandwich, sure to fill your belly at dinnertime. It does take about 7-10 minutes to prepare, but for a dinner sandwich, that's not bad.
Also this tastes great with some Cole Slaw on the side, especially the ones that are more on the sour side.
What you need:
4-5 very thinly sliced pieces of Roast Beef
4 smallish Mushrooms (you can use slices from a can, or slice about 4 fresh ones)
1-2 pieces of Swiss Cheese (go for a nice smoky variety)
2 slices of a hearty bread, or on a nice fresh roll (think onion, kaiser, or ciabatta) Really just choose one that won't get too soggy quickly.
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 clove of garlic, minced
Optional: Dress with a little mustard, mayo, or better yet, add a little grilled sauerkraut and horseradish.
Step 1. Put your bread into the toaster or toaster oven.
Step 2. Grill your mushrooms and the sauerkraut.
**Tip** To grill the mushrooms, add the olive oil to the pan with the minced garlic. After you have washed, stemmed, and sliced your mushrooms, grill them on medium heat in the oil. Try to keep the oil and schrooms on one side of the skillet, use the other side to grill the kraut.
When the kraut is finished being heated, just add it to the toasted bread.
Step 3. In the same large skillet (just rinse it), grill the beef on medium-high heat. When the first side is cooked flip it, and add the grilled mushrooms, and the swiss cheese to melt.
Step 4. Add the melt to the bread, slice, and enjoy! :)

Pimb's Peanut Butter Cheesecake Pie
So far pie is in the lead for the great Pie > Cake debate! Here's a yummy OT submission for a no-bake, peanut butter cheesecake pie.
Ingredients:
1 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar (also known as confectioner's sugar)
1 cup milk
1 8 oz. package of cream cheese, soften (leave on the counter for a little bit before stirring in the sugar)
1 premade graham cracker crust
1 16 oz. tub of whipped cream
Step 1. Mix the cream cheese and powdered sugar together.
Step 2. Add peanut butter and milk, stir.
Step 3. Add whipped cream, stir.
Step 4. Pour mixture into the graham cracker crust then freeze until firm.

Monstrously Delicious Salami and Cheddar Sammie, by Carson
Carson has kindly submitted another delicious sandwich idea, for our tasting pleasure. This one is basically a salami and cheese, but it's not your ordinary variety. In fact, you could make slight variations to this to tailor it to your own cravings. Change up the dressing, eat cold, melt it, whatever! It's all going to taste good.
Instead of giving the ingredients for just one sandwich, Carson suggests that you purchase enough to make a few, as you'll be craving a second.
He writes, "This is basically just a sandwich, but dang, I love it. I ate 5 of them this weekend!"
Ingredients:
1 loaf of sliced Sourdough Bread
1 package of Salami (I prefer hard salami.)
1 package of sliced Cheddar(mild, or sharp)
Dressing: Use Italian Dressing, or Cream Cheese.
For an individual sandwich use:
2 slices of sourdough
5-6 pieces of salami
2-3 slices of cheddar
Depending on the size of your loaf of bread, you can get quite a few sandwiches out of some easy to gather supplies.
**Tip** Make this into a melt! Toast the bread, and grill the salami and cheddar. Deeeelicious!
